ZUTON DAVE: 'GRIM STATE'

THE Zutons frontman Dave McCabe believes the music industry is in a “grim state”.

The Valerie hitmaker, whose band shot to fame in the 2000s, says it’s tougher than ever to make a living as a musician because of tightened purse strings.

Dave told me: “There's well less money flying about. I am lucky to have sold records at that time.

“Because I don't know what you do now. I really don’t know what you do, apart from gigs, so you build it up and you gig.
